c++: provide a means to clear symbols
The symbol destructor is currently the only means to clear a symbol.
Unfortunately during error recovery we might have to clear the
lookahead, which is a local variable (yyla) that has not yet reached
its end of scope.
Rather that duplicating the code to destroy a symbol, or rather than
destroying and recreating yyla, let's provide a means to clear a
symbol.

%union: fix the support for named %union
Bison supports a union tag, for obscure reasons. But it does a poor
job at it, especially since Bison 3.0.
Reported by Stephen Cameron and Tobias Frost.
It did not ensure that the name was not given several times. An easy
way to do this is to make the %union tag be handled as a %define
variable, as they cannot be defined several times.
Since Bison 3.0, the synclines were wrongly placed, resulting in
invalid code. Addressing this issue, because of the way the union tag
was stored (as a code muscle), would have been tedious. Unless we
rather define the %union tag as a %percent variable, whose synclines
are easier to manipulate.
So replace the b4_union_name muscle by the api.value.union.name
%define variable, document, and check.

lalr1.cc: fix the support of YYERROR with variants
When variant are enabled, the yylhs variable (the left-hand side of
the rule being reduced, i.e. $$ and @$) is explicitly destroyed when
YYERROR is called. This is because before running the user code, $$

However, when quitting yyparse, yylhs is also reclaimed by the C++

the scope of yylhs to exactly the reduction. This way, whatever the
type of scope exit (regular, exception, return, goto...) this variable
will be properly reclaimed.

The body of the parse loop is modified to return values at appropriate
points when doing push parsing. In order to make push parsing work,
it is necessary to divide YYNEWSTATE into two states: YYNEWSTATE and
YYGETTOKEN. On the first call to push_parse(), the state is
YYNEWSTATE. On all later entries, the state is set to YYGETTOKEN. The
YYNEWSTATE switch arm falls through into YYGETTOKEN. YYGETTOKEN
indicates that a new token is potentially needed. Normally, with a
pull parser, this new token would be obtained by calling "yylex()". In
the push parser, the value YYMORE is returned to the caller. On the
next call to push_parse(), the parser will return to the YYGETTOKEN
state and continue operation.
